OF is used as a multiplication operation.

The term OF is used as a multiplication operation. For example

one may say #20%" of "300#

as #20%=20/100#

#20%" of "300=20/100xx300=20/100xx300#

or one may use OF as in

#3/7" of "343# #-# and again it means multiplication

#3/7" of "91/125=3/7xx91/125=3/cancel7^1xxcancel91^13/125=39/125#
